The leader may change in La Liga today. If successful, Barcelona will take a clear first place, which is more familiar to eyes of the fans than Atletico’s being there, which, after a misfire in the last round, may even lose bronze. The Catalans have 22 victories and five peaceful outcomes, which corresponds to 71 points and third place. After the defeat to Real Madrid, the Blue Garnet defeated Getafe (5:2) and Villarreal (2:1). It is impossible not to recall the best indicator of the team in the attacking line, where of the 76 goals scored during the season, 25 goals are in the asset of Lionel Messi. In the Champions League, Barca suffered a fiasco in the first stage of the playoffs, losing to PSG. In January Ronald Koeman’s charges lost in the Super Bowl. But the team has already won their trophy. The victory in the final of the Spanish Cup on April 17 over Athletic (4:0) brought the first serious success over the past year. Braithwaite, Coutinho and Fati, who has a knee injury, will not be able to enter the field today.
The Clippers ended a 4-win streak in a 103-120 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans in their final battle. Tyrone Liu’s guys frankly failed the first quarter, as they allowed the Pelicans to get 13 points behind. After that, the “hairdressers” made attempts to compete with owners, but as a result, they did not manage to put serious pressure on the Orleans. The best among guests was Mann, who earned 17 points. The Los Angeles Clippers are ranked # 3 in the conference with 43 wins after 63 game days, with a PP of 0.683 and averaging 114 to 108. The Hairdressers had 31 games away, celebrating 19 victories.
